...pretty is, as pretty does!

...

january

...

~ a clean slate ~

~ a fresh start ~

~ out with old, in with the new ~

hhhmmmmmm

I find,

that moving forward

actually requires an action...

as in steps!

and it is often easier said

than done...

sometimes my feet

only seem this big

and it feels as though I am not really moving at all!!

LOL!!

sooooo,

for me, it helps if

I pretty myself up as best I can.

putting my best foot forward, so to speak!!!

maybe I start with a neck adornment...

that's pretty:)

okay,

time for the rest of me

...

aahhhh, yes,

these wings will do nicely today!

   

as any self respectable fairy will tell you,

never to leave home without 'em!!

How else do you think I can anything done??!

Well, the outside is wrapped lovely!

Now,

now it's time to see what's on the inside!!

and this,

my friends,

is the part I will be challenging myself even more with this year.

...and being very careful what I put into "my basket"

for it's those little, everyday choices

that truely shape us into who we are.

So I say to you, my dears,

on this random January day,

It is my desire to be a positive

and shine from within,

so that any beauty you see

is not really being seen with your eyes ~

but

with your spirit!!

and dear readers,

I'd also like to say,

Thank You for all your visits,

your awesome words of encouragement

and daily friendships!

Oh,

~ and hang on!

I think it's going to be

one

exciting and enlightening year!!
